Abstract

A device for use in a work vehicle such as a wheel loader, capable of reliably preventing engine stall due to rapid application of high hydraulic load, without causing problems such as deterioration in fuel efficiency or vehicle performance and waste of energy. When determining that an engine speed detected by the engine speed detecting sensor has been decreased to the threshold value or lower, the controller implements a control to reduce the absorption torque of the variable displacement hydraulic pump. The hydraulic load is thus shifted to a low hydraulic load line. The change of the hydraulic load from the high hydraulic load to the low hydraulic load gives a margin to the current torque of the engine with respect to the low hydraulic load. Consequently, the actual speed of the engine is increased to return onto the regulation line, exceeding the threshold value.
